since this is such a delicate forecast situation, what sort of trends are we looking for tonight?

Since it is quite here I will chime in. Not so sure we are looking for trends so much as 1: for the norlun trough to continue to show up as it has been quite consistently and 2: where does it show up on this run compared to previous runs. Last few 12 and 18z seemed to hedge its bets a little bit further north but as many have said this type of situation is very touchy and very difficult for models to see let alone place accurately more the 24hrs out. If I was a betting man I would suspect in the end it will target from extreme NNJ up into the Hudson Valley and western CT. With a bullseye over the SE Catskills. But then again I am not a betting man so who knows for sure.

Still going through 57 hrs... .75 on LI just northeast of NYC into SE NY

that's a 5-8" event for LI then... The good 'ol days!!!! That was considered an awesome storm back when I started to like weather, in the mid 80's... Friday afternoon into night... Perfect Friday night.. Love it!

about .25

This is going to be one heck of a 'surprise' large event for some folks. Yes, probably a farily small area, but a highly populated one. I wouls guess at this point from C NJ through S NE a general 1"-3" will fall, but whoever gets lucky and that band stalls over them might be looking at VERY impressive snow rates, and up to 10-12" of snow.

Has an area of favorable UVV's at that hour directly over NE NJ..NYC..LI..and SE NY as well as portions of SW CT

That is a very impressive looking, the narrow, area that looks to recieve a nice period of heavy snow. The consistancy on the feature and its placement over the past several runs is pretty impressive especially for this type of event. I feel pretty confident this narrow band will target somewhere from about I80 in NNJ northward into SE NY. I84 may very well end up being the main axis. Or better Yet Rt 17 out of Bergen County up into SE NY. But again time will tell.
